[Verse 1]
CFC
There was a cold win-ter night,
FGC
where the dark went on for-ev-er,
FGC
and the world seemed like a dream gone a-stray.
FC
And some-how there on this night,
FGC
as the world hud-dled to-geth-er,
FG
there a child slept at the end of this day.______
And he
[Chorus 1]
CF/C
dreams of an-oth-er world in an-oth-er time
C
and an-oth-er place where no man
CF/C
has to wear a sigh say-ing where he's from,
say-ing what's his race.
CG/BAmFG
And he wants us to be-lieve.
C
this world that he sees.
FCFG
[Verse 2]
CFC
What is the dream of this night,
FGC
why does it e-cho for-ev-er?
FGC
Here in the cold at the end of the year.
FC
And with all our dif-f'ent lives,
FGC
why do we dream it to-geth-er?
FG
When, at the first sign of snow, it ap-pears.______
When he
[Chorus 2]
CF
dreamed of an-oth-er world in an-oth-er time
C
and an-oth-er place where no man has to wear a sign
F/C
say-ing where he's from,
say-ing what's his race.
CG/BAmFA
And he wants us to be-lieve this world he sees.
